The Humanist Geniocracy of Ryfin is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Barahir with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 28.692 billion Edain are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Environment, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ladros. The average income tax rate is 93.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Edain economy, worth a remarkable 5,019 trillion Silmarils a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,931 Silmarils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advertisers are struggling to make water sound cool to a twitchy public, school nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, and the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ryfin's national animal is the Wolf Hound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ryfin is ranked 161,590^th in the world and 23^rd in Middle Earth for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,673.53 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
